ISC: Collaborating With Seismic Networks Worldwide

Description: 

The mission of the International Seismological Centre (ISC) is to produce the most long-term and complete Bulletin of instrumentally recorded seismicity on a global scale by running parametric data exchange with ~150 seismic networks in ~100 countries. We also take additional measurements from publicly available waveforms to improve event source parametrization. For instance, we aim to better constrain the depths of moderate to large seismic events by taking the depth phase arrival time measurements and calculating Probabilistic Point Source Model solutions (ISC-PPSM). We also started taking automated IASPEI-compliant amplitude and period measurements to complement similar measurements supplied by networks.

In addition, we produce a number of data products that stem from the ISC Bulletin and allow the ISC to assist several areas of research. These include the ISC-EHB dataset (1964-2021), ISC-GEM catalogue (1904-2019), IASPEI Reference Event List (GT, 1959-2020) and ISC Event Bibliography (1904-2024). We also maintain supplementary services: the Electronic Archive of Printed Station/Network bulletins, the International Seismological Contacts, and the ISC Dataset Repository. We look forward to further extending our collaboration with both permanent and temporary networks worldwide.
